    Apply expressions created in subcomponents using Part Families

    I'm trying to create assemblies using part families but now I'm stuck. Simple example: I have an assembly (X) consisting of one extrusion at top level and one component(x) also with one extrusion whose length should be the same as in the top level extrusion. I would like to use part families...
